Abstract
A method includes receiving a user-specified context comprising one or more natural language contextual antecedents. Then, for each contextual antecedent, a modified contextual antecedent is created by converting each contextual antecedent to a sequence of integers using a word base. Each modified contextual antecedent is compared to each of a plurality of cases stored in a case base, where each case includes one or more case antecedents and one or more case consequents. The case antecedents and case consequents are stored in the case base as sequences of integers representing the respective case antecedents and case consequents. The case having the case antecedents that best match the contextual antecedents is then selected and the case consequents of the selected case are displayed to a user. The user then provides feedback regarding the displayed case consequents. The feedback may be integrated into the contextual antecedent for a new search of the case base. The method is computer-implementable and may be efficiently performed by a distributed processing system.
